Every single vendor we used went above and beyond any expectations. Billy and Janice from Your Dream Events were our Dj, Wedding Planner and Officiant... And with that much work they handled it flawlessly! Never did I ever picture being so relaxed on my wedding day, I found myself looking for things to do to help but there was nothing because they did everything. I can't thank them enough for everything they did. We all dream of the perfect wedding, but this was better than I ever imagined! We are already thinking of reasons to use them again :)

Janice was rude with me when i did cancel with her, she told me she would call me back and never did.

Roxanna did amazing with paperwork, timing and music choices! While officiating, Matt spoke clearly and with feeling. Both services were top notch and we could not have asked for a more. The communication is excellent. Matt and Roxanna have the best personalities and have earned our business for life (2 more daughters to marry off). We are sincerely grateful the professionalism, guidance and support!

Awesome! Engaging! Hyped!! Those are just three of the words I could use to describe Matthew…read moreWilliams of Next Up Entertainment. He was the DJ for the Lake Weir High School Class of 1982's High School Reunion on 6-11-2022. Matthew worked with a member of the Reunion Committee to make sure that all of our needs were met. He had a huge music selection from the 80s forward! He did a great job of getting everyone involved and moving on the dance floor. He definitely was able to HYPE the crowd!! Matthew was professional, punctual, and competent! Qualities that we were looking for in a DJ. I would gladly recommend him for future events. And he's reasonably priced too with multiple payment options.

I could not be happier with the selection I made with Studio 45. From booking the day/time, to getting my pictures, Heather and Jeff were extremely helpful, accommodating, professional, and friendly.

Words cannot describe how incredible they are, not just as photographers (they did our engagement session and judging from that, I seriously cannot wait to see the wedding pictures) but as people. We instantly clicked and I knew it was going to be awesome. They not only were there to capture every special moment from arriving, getting ready, the ceremony, reception, all the way up until the send off (that was about a 12+ hour day) but they were a message or a phone call away with any questions I had pertaining to the wedding (even in areas that weren't photography, like working with the DJ for a timeline, assisting if we needed anything picked up or done around town before hand among many other things). When the day was said and done, I knew that it wouldn't be good bye for good because I 100% plan to have them continue to be our go to photographers for major life events and family photos. We didn't just hire photographers, we hired friends and I cannot say enough good about them! Thank you Jeff and Heather for making the beginning to our newest chapter so perfect!

They were very kind and gracious, and were able to create two beautiful bouquets of long-stemmed roses with greenery and baby's breath, wrapped with shred ribbons. The quality of the bouquets was excellent. They were ready the next morning. The staff was also very nice. I highly recommend them!

He was very responsive (working through weekends and late nights) to address my requirements and suggest solutions. He went above & beyond in his recommendation for executing a perfect outdoor event. Anand is a great communicator, trustworthy and brilliant event planner. Every detail was planned and executed to perfection. He took the stress out of event planning for me. He is definitely one of the best that exists in this business. I wish A&V Party the very best on their journey. Thank you for everything Anand.

BUYER BEWARE. We were having a fine time working with Anand to create our wedding mandap decor…read moreuntil simple verbiage in his liability insurance needed to be changed. This was standard verbiage every other 3rd party vendor we worked with had no problem changing for our venue, but per his own "legal counsel" he could not change the verbiage. This was a contract with a large hotel venue and I'm assuming he's never worked with larger clients and as a result was not prepared to offer the correct liability insurance. He kept saying this is "not standard" when literally every other person we were working with said it was.. He then turned on us and accused me and my husband for not properly preparing him to work with our venue. How are we supposed to know what type of legal documents he is supposed to provide as a vendor? That is quite literally the job of the vendor to figure out, and again this tells me he's never worked with larger clients. In addition, he knew at signing which hotel we would be working with and it is his job as a vendor to ensure he is prepared to handle an event at the venue in the signed contract. He ended up wanting us to sign a form that essentially put all the blame on me and my husband if anything at all went wrong with the mandap structure as well as allow him to cancel at ANY time up until the wedding. Obviously, we could not sign this and found another mandap vendor who could change the verbiage and provide quality services. This back and forth about the insurance verbiage went on for months and Anand was a poor communicator with me, my husband, my wedding planner, and my venue's event coordinator. It was 3 weeks before the wedding when he decided to give us an ultimatum causing me significant stress as a bride to find a new vendor. We dropped him as a vendor due to his lack of service and reliability, not due to the changes in weather as he may claim. I cannot stress enough that this company is not prepared to work on larger venues or provide any type of liability insurances. You might be able to rent a few chairs or decor items from them, but save yourself the stress and hassle, and spend a little money to get a better vendor for your wedding. It should also be noted this is the first review in YEARS he has received which is suspicious. He also claims that we asked for a "custom mandap" when there is nothing truly custom on our mandap. As with every decorator there are different items and ways to set things up, but we did not specifically have him craft anything that he cannot reuse. He has already posted the mandap on his website and will be able to reuse every material that was "custom." Therefore, there was no loss of business, but he attempted to charge us thousands for this work. We adhered to the cancellation policy in the poorly written contract and cancelled our agreement as it is clearly stated and forfeited our deposit.
